A nice place to stay I would go back again but hope for a lager bathroom
Pros:

The staff was helpful and friendly
the bedroom had all we needed
the bed itself was very comfortable and we had a very good breakfast

Cons:

The bathroom had a very small sink and the shower was over a narrow bath with low grab handles. For me as an older and larger person they were not comfortable
to use

Für zwei drei Nächte empfehlenswert. Nähe zum Santa Pod Raceway hervorragend.
Pros:

Tolles Personal. Hilfreich, sehr sehr freundlich. Täglich frisches Wasser im Zimmer, Kaffee und Tee. Leicht zu finden. Trotz Hauptstrasse sehr ruhig im Zimmer. Gute Frühstücksauswahl, grosse Portionen zum Abendessen. Bar hat alles an Wein, Bier, Ale und Spirituosen sowie Snacks, was man braucht.

Cons:

In unserem Zimmer hat es immer etwas komisch gerochen. Bett war für unsere Verhältnisse etwas eng. Beim nächsten Mal buchen wir eine andere Zimmerkategorie, die hat das grosse Bett 😉. Badezimmer sehr klein. Alles in Armlänge vorhanden. Aber: sehr sauber!!
